A repost of one of one of my most popular posts from 2017 just for fun. Fat Boi Biking! This weekend, I spent $27 on making a bucket list item come true. It’ll probably be the only bucket list item I can do for $27 and that’s okay. It’s also two years behind schedule, but […]

2018, A Year in Silliness
Posted: 3rd January 2019 by admin in BlogTags: humor, silliness, year in review
A couple of years ago, I did a blog post that was just a collection of silly social media posts that I had put up in the previous year. People enjoyed it and I enjoyed doing it, so I decided we needed a repeat performance. I hope it brings you a few chuckles. It certainly […]
Notes on Homesteading and Rugby Shirts
Posted: 6th September 2018 by admin in BlogTags: cooking, friends, gardening, homesteading, humor
The storms this past week have been hard on my peach tree. I watched all through the spring as the hard, fuzzy golfballs grew, blushed, developed an ever-so-slightly detectable give. They all come into peak at the same time so there’s one week each summer that is dedicated to collecting and processing, and the Ball […]
Indoor/Outdoor Entomos
Posted: 17th August 2018 by admin in BlogTags: adulting, home ownership, humor, phobias
Here’s a familiar topic for my readers. It’s summer, after all. How could we get through a whole summer and I haven’t done one entomo post? So I have to do it. Many posts back, we determined that I have entomophobia—the fear of insects. Not ALL insects. Centipedes. Specifically, house centipedes. https://urbantidepool.com/2014/12/16/if-you-knew-what-bugged-me/ https://urbantidepool.com/2017/03/27/bad-ass-adulting-in-entomo-season/ It’s even […]
On Being an Aging Carbon-Based Wonder
Posted: 25th March 2018 by admin in BlogTags: aging, energy, growing older, humor
When last we parted company, starfish supporters, we were chatting about my dubious status as an athletic carbon-based wonder and my adventures in the marine world that left me with seaweed down my Tweedle Dum pants and arguing with the control panel of a nervy lap pool that had just blown my board shorts off. […]
On Being an Athletic Carbon-Based Wonder
Posted: 30th January 2018 by admin in BlogTags: athletic, exercise, humor, lesbian stereotypes, sports
I’ve mentioned in previous posts that I am clear on the fact that I will never impress anyone with my athletic ability. That’s been the case throughout my life, even as a young person when I was actively playing softball and racquetball. It’s fun. It moves me around. People talk about exercise all the time. […]
The Smart Ass Guide to Decoding Lesbian Dating Profiles

Wow, these online dating websites are quite popular. I used a couple of them, myself, in addition to some Meet Up groups in my effort to make new friends following my gay-divorce. (When you get gay-married, you have to get gay-divorced.) Curious process, this. While I did meet a few folks who became friends, I […]
Bad Ass Adulting in Entomo Season
Posted: 27th March 2017 by admin in BlogTags: adulting, home ownership, humor, phobias
A Facebook post from last spring: Somewhere in a parallel universe, there’s a bug version of Criminal Minds playing out and investigators are standing over dismembered centipedes saying, “Given this level of overkill, this is clearly the work of a centipeda-cidal maniac.” Yes. Arrest me now. I make no exoskeletons about my centipede phobia. I’ve […]
2016, A Year of Silliness
Posted: 19th February 2017 by admin in BlogTags: Facebook posts, humor, silliness
My Facebook friends often comment on the humor in my posts. Who could not use a little humor? So I sat down today and pulled the most responded-to, most Erma Bombeck-inspired posts from 2016. I hope they will make you smile. “Your Facebook posts are so funny. And I’m learning there’s a predictable group of […]
A few blogs ago, I confided in you (and thanks for not telling anyone else) that I thought the Lesbian Association of the Midwest, or LAM as we call them for short, was going to descend upon my house, capture my lesbian membership card and haul it away with a big hook through it, while […]
